Chapter 352: Meaning of perseverance


The fighting in the day on October 25 was fierce, and Dane's troops were not lost.
The detailed battle report has not yet come out, but according to the estimated results, Dempsey had only about 2,000 units left, and lost half of the battle with the Dion Army in the main points of the city throughout the day. about. As for the local troops that are not high in fighting will, there are very few remaining, most of them have been scattered and run away.
However, relying on a thousand-person squadron with hundreds of miscellaneous soldiers, the Iron Nail Post Overseer who has just been in office for less than four months still has no intention of giving up, and is still stubbornly prepared to keep on.
This attitude will definitely make Dane feel a headache.
This whole day, taking into account the commando led by the previous ambush Anka and the local forces that were destroyed, Dion's legion formed an annihilated and destroyed enemy army. Already. The casualties on our side are about five or six hundred people. Most of the losses, of course, come from the manpower that was broken during the battle with the iron nail army in the defense of the city.
A battle loss ratio of seven to seven is actually a brilliant result for any army, especially the main attacker. Even the most demanding general cannot be dissatisfied with such a casualty ratio.
But this kind of thing needs to be viewed in general, and this battle cannot be viewed alone.
The total number of troops in Dyne's hands is so large. Even with such a high percentage of war damage, all his troops have died, and it is estimated that he will be able to finish off Governor Conley's main army. But then again, this time the initiative to attack the core area of ​​Tieganggang was somewhat cheaper. If it is not for the demise of Anka ’s entire army that Dempsey mobilized his troops, and his control of the city will decline sharply in the short term, I ’m afraid it ’s difficult for Dane to advance the army to the city ’s central square.
Scratching his head and fighting Governor Conley independently was indeed an impossible task, and Dane quickly put this unrealistic idea behind him.
The next thing he needs to consider is how to completely remove Dempsey from the Iron Nail Post and even think of some ways to completely destroy it.
However, the old guy was now holding the stronghold in the south of the city and stayed firm.
On the night of the 25th, Dane ordered the troops to rest for one night without continuing the offensive. By the day of the 26th, the retired army began to oppress the city south.
Without rushing, Dane first asked the Gryphon squad and some other ground reconnaissance teams to observe the movement of the Dempsey Army.
The results came back a bit bad.
More than a thousand Stray City infantry, with local troops of five or six hundred people, were less than two thousand. However, although the number is certainly not much, their defensive range is not as large as in yesterday's battle. In this way, they can more easily gather forces and carry out dead-battle operations.
Dane decided to be cautious. Instead of launching a full-scale onslaught directly, he sent troops to conduct tentative attack attempts from various aspects.
Under Dane's temptation, Dempsey's defense in the south of the city can almost be said to be leak-proof. The tentative attack continued into the evening of the day, and it was close to dark, and Dane did not find any exploits that could be used.
"Does it really depend on human life to fill it up?" Dane thought depressively, the last thing he wanted to see was that kind of scene.
He expected that if he really wanted to fight like that, let alone the seven battle losses during the day on the 25th. In a defensive situation like Dempsey, he would really want to clear him out of the city, I'm afraid Dane's troops , How many casualties will be paid to kill as many Dempsey soldiers.
Obviously, this is not the result Dane wanted.
The tentative test on the 26th failed in vain. On the 27th, Dane strengthened the attack on the south of the city and achieved certain results. He knocked out some of the strongholds of the iron nail guards in the south of the city, but this completely cleared them up. There is still a long way out of the city.
Moreover, in order to capture those two strongholds, Dane lost a large group of soldiers.
This made Dane feel very distressed and stopped the offensive after noon.
The two days of futility proved that Dempsey's skill in defending himself was really good. In particular, when this guy no longer thinks about taking the initiative to attack, and even has no idea of ​​escaping the city, he just wants to persist in the south of Tieganggang City for a longer time, then he becomes more difficult to deal with.
After all, Dempsey has a reason to stay still no matter what.
The veteran who has been on the battlefield for more than 20 years will not do anything meaningless. He topped the front line in the south of Tieganggang, waiting for reinforcements.
Long before the war had begun, when Governor Conley was planning to move towards the ice caves in the north, it had been expected that Dane would definitely attack Dempsey at Iron Nail Post ~ EbookFREE.me ~ The governor of North Korea, Kangli, has had reinforcements.
At that time, Governor Conley promised to send reinforcements to him. Later, Dempsey also received the news that the reinforcements were already on the road. It was a corps with three alliances, led by General Arnold.
Arnold was not Conley's. Instead, he used to be a warlord close to Bernier. When Governor Bernier died, Arnold also rebelled against Governor Conley's rule over Cinderella. However, after a defeat, he was also the fastest in the anti-Conri camp.
For Conley, Arnold, who was the first person to renounce the dark and cast the light, was a person to be used as a role model. Conley was very good to him and gave him a lot of support in all aspects, that is, to establish other warlords. Follow the example of 'follow me and eat meat'.
How much this effect has been played is hard to say, but at the very least, after one or two years of support, Arnold has been following Conrily deadly.
This time, Dempsey called for help, because the Kangli forces themselves had to prepare for the battle on the Ice Cave City in the north, and at the same time they had to guard against the Governor of the East, Ozer, and Governor Kangli ’s own unit was indeed somewhat stretched. As it happens, Arnold's sphere of influence is not far from Iron Nail Post, so he just sent him.
Arnold didn't quit halfway. In his opinion, although Dane's reputation rose to the south, Dane's total strength was just that much. I brought 4,500 people, plus the 3,000 Infantry Infantry soldiers in Dempsey's hand, and some local troops in Iron Nail Post. The total strength will be over 10,000. Can we still keep Iron Nail Post?
Going straight south, flipping Dane is a breeze! 8
